Design & Style 2: Streamline, Mohawk Paper Mills and The Pushpin Group, USA, 1987. 10.25 x 12, pp. 34. Edited by Steven Heller. Designed by Seymour Chwast and Roxanne Slimak.

This is the 2nd issue dedicated to the Streamline movement, the modern, machine aesthetic of the 1930s; “a marriage of art, industry and science”.  Heavily illustrated with images and supporting text throughout including: magazine covers, logos, alphabets, billboards, posters, industrial designs, architecture and more ending with a section on the present. Paper production notes and a timeline laid-in with a selected Bibliography at the end.

Design & Style was a biannual journal of resource and inspiration dedicated to twentieth century art and design movements. It presented historic design and typography movements and their influence on contemporary graphic design with issues devoted to: Jugendstil, Streamline, Art Deco, Futurism, De Stijl, Surrealism, and Bauhaus. Each issue was lavishly printed with a variety of Mohawk Papers using various printing and production techniques such as: die cutting, interesting folds, tipped-in plates and inserts, pop-ups and more.

A very good perfect-bound softcover book in stiff French-folded wrappers with the smallest chip the spine head and a light bend to the upper corner and interior pages throughout. Without the publishers envelope.
